Italian sides on red alert as Man United star admits interest in Serie A move

The French full-back, who spent time at Italian clubs Marsala and Monza earlier in his career, is out of contract at Old Trafford at the end of June.

Under-fire manager David Moyes is expected to rebuild his ageing squad and it remains to be seen whether Evra, who turns 33 in May, will be offered a new deal.

And now Federico Pastorello, Evra’s representative, says the defender, who has been linked with Inter Milan, could be on his way to Serie A if a suitable offer arises.

He told Tele Radio Stereo: "He must decide what to do with his future. He is physically well despite not being young any more, he can play three more seasons at a very high level.

"Patrice has always held Serie A in high regard, so it is an assumption that if he were to leave England he would consider [going there]. But at the moment it is too early for him and for others to talk about the future."
